Remy Udeh crowned #HASC24 Dunk Contest champion

By Eduardo Tansley on May 26, 2024

Remy Udeh claimed the Dunk Contest title at the 2024 Hoopsfix All-Star Classic in comfortable fashion at Crystal Palace, on Sunday.

Udeh – from London Lions’ academy – cruised past the first round with a score of 62 over two dunks, compared to other competitors Ben Csernak and Edward Onyia who both scored 52.

This led to a tie-break between the two for a spot in the final alongside Udeh, which Onyia won by the deciding factor of crowd noise with a reverse slam.

In the final, Udeh received 9s across the board for his second dunk, bringing out last year’s men’s MVP Nedas Cholevinskas to assist him off the side of the backboard.

His total score in the final, again over two dunks, came to 70, winning over Oniya’s 41, after the Loughbrough Rider failed to convert a dunk in the final including attempting to dunk over 6’11” Tim Oboh.

First round: Remy Udeh 62 (30, 32), Ben Csernak 52 (27, 25), Edward Onyia 52 (28, 24)

Do you like our work?

We have a tiny favour to ask. In 2018 we set out to make Hoopsfix sustainable by building our relationship directly with our readers. Up until now, Hoopsfix has been creating editorials, videos and podcasts to provide sorely missing coverage of the British game and its distinct culture and community.

We have funded Hoopsfix with our freelance work creating basketball media, but sadly that means not only does it fall behind our client’s priorities, but some of those clients are the same organisations we need to report objectively on putting us in a conflicted position.

We want to devote more time to our mission of helping British basketball reach its potential, and produce even more content for the basketball community by making Hoopsfix a sustainable 100% independent business funded directly by our readers through Patreon.

If everyone who enjoys our content chose to support us, our future would be much more secure. For as little as $3 per month, you can support Hoopsfix – and it only takes a minute.

We are tremendously honoured and humbled to have a community of people who value what we do, and we look forward to being at the forefront of the British game as it continues to evolve.
